Weak German data (the economy grew at a slower pace in Q3 and consumer morale was soured by high inflation and new wave of coronavirus) are expected to add to Euro’s negative sentiment and keep in play increased risk of further fall.
Bears pressure support at 1.1168 (mid-June 2020 higher base) the last obstacle on the way towards 1.1040 (Fibo 76.4% of 1.0635/1.2349) and psychological 1.10 support.
Limited correction should be expected in coming session as daily RSI is oversold and bearish momentum shows signs of fatigue.
Solid resistance at 1.1300 zone (broken Fibo 61.8% / falling 10 DMA) should ideally cap, with extended upticks to stay under 1.1373 (Nov 18/19 lower tops).
